Former Barca boss Guardiola also called on Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy to answer questions after violent scenes broke out during Catalonia's unofficial independence referendum. "I wouldn't have played the Barca-Las Palmas game. And if it did have to be played, then you do it with the fans. With all the consequences."

Nadal heartbroken
Meanwhile, Spain's World No. 1 Rafael Nadal said he felt like crying. "I want to cry when I see a country where we have known how to co-exist and be a good example to the rest of the world get to a situation like this. I think the image we have presented to the world is negative. It was a sad moment and my heart sank all day," he said.
